Northfield Synagogue

Stamford Hill, London N.16.

(The synagogue was near the corner with
Northfield Road, hence the name of the congregation. The site is now
part of Lubavitch House, which extends from 107 to 115 Stamford Hill.)

The congregation appears to have included the
Yeshiva Or Yisrael.

(Location: The road Stamford Hill is a
seven-eighths of a mile section of
the A10 running north from Stoke Newington High Street to
High Road, Tottenham. The North London districts of Stamford Hill, Upper
Clapton and some
other adjoining
areas include the largest
concentration of Haredi Jews in Europe.)

Stamford Hill is in the
London Borough of Hackney,
an Inner London Borough created on 1 April 1965, within the administrative area of Greater London.

Previously Stamford Hill was in the somewhat
smaller former Metropolitan Borough of
Hackney (established 1900) in the County of London
(established 1889), both of which entities were abolished in 1965.
